He proceeded to take money out of his bank account because he knew that after he released the information his bank account, house, credit cards, etc. would all be frozen/taken. He also got into contact with reporters that could spread the information.

After going to a 2006 job-fair focused on intelligence agencies, Snowden was offered and accepted a position at the CIA﻿

From the beginning Snowden began to see the NSA was corrupted. As he moved along in his career moving to higher positions he was realizing more how much data the NSA was receiving from everyday people. He saw that the NSA was targeting regular people to "make sure no suspicious activity was going on".
